This festival is unique: you will be immersed in the atmosphere of medieval Georgian temples with their unique acoustics and will be able to sing in these ancient heritage temples. Participants will visit authentic places, meet a traditional Georgian family in the village of Chumlaki, wine tasting, kebab and khinkali making masterclasses and lunch, during which you will see a Georgian choir singing.
You can talk about Georgia endlessly, and it is impossible to get to know this country in one trip, except to get to familiarise yourself with it. But this experience will leave a trace of incredible beauty in your heart, which will beckon you to return time after time. This is a country whose hospitality is legendary, with the rugged beauty of mountain temples or the taverns of old Tbilisi, unique dance culture and unique polyphony.

Day 2

Tbilisi

Breakfast at hotel.
Excursion around Tbilisi.

The capital of Georgia is unique. It stands on several mountainous hills, on which the ancient districts of the city “crawl” in layers. Tbilisi has the beautiful Kura River with its picturesque rocky banks, which flows through the city.

Tbilisi was founded by the Georgian King Vakhtang Gorgasali in the fifth century AD. In the 12th century Tbilisi became one of the important political, economic and cultural centres of the Caucasus and the Middle East. As the capital of one of the most powerful countries in the Caucasus region, Tbilisi was the crossroads of the main trade and cultural routes between east and west, south and north, the main route of the “Great Silk Road”.
We will visit the city centre, we will look at life of city dwellers, and our guides will tell you how the city breathes.
You will not only have the chance to admire, but also to learn much about the architectural and cultural monuments of the Old Town, which has been protected for centuries by the “Narikala” fortress with its castellated walls.
Visit Peace Bridge. On the left side of the bridge is temple Sioni, which we will also visit. Walk around Old Tbilisi, Rustaveli Avenue, Abanotubani (sulphur baths area).

On request (extra charge) you can visit sulphur baths – ‘Georgian Thermal Spa’.

The city of Tbilisi is based on sulphur springs. Alexander Pushkin, going to Arzrum in 1829, stopped in Tbilisi, where he visited the local baths and described in one of his works: “I have never seen anything more luxurious than the Tiflis baths, neither in Russia nor in Turkey…”.
Today they are modern equipped bathhouses, their water is taken from sulphur springs and there is a swimming pool filled with springs.
Sulphur springs are very good for the skin.
